Nearby springs
Piedra River Hot Springs
Several small rock pools along the Piedra River west of Pagosa Springs, reached by a roughly 1.5-mile hike from the Sheep Creek trailhead off First Fork Road. The Forest Service lists temperatures of about 95-105°F depending on how much river water mixes in. Bikes and pack animals are not allowed, and poison ivy is common along the route.
Dunton Hot Springs
A restored 19th-century mining town in the San Juan Mountains turned into a small luxury retreat with 14 cabins. Guests share a historic bathhouse and outdoor pools fed by natural hot springs, with daily slots for private bathhouse use. It is open year-round to overnight guests only.
Box Canyon Lodge & Hot Springs
A small historic lodge near Box Cañon Falls in Ouray where spring water from the hillside fills seven red-cedar soaking tubs before draining to the Uncompahgre River. The tubs are presented as an amenity for lodge guests. The property dates back to a 1920s sanitarium.
